Friendships are some of the longest-standing and most important relationships in our lives - they help us feel seen, nourished, and cared for. As a clinical psychologist with over twenty years of experience, Dr. Joy Harden Bradford knows the power of community and the positive impact it has on our health and wellbeing.

Drawing on Dr. Joy's expertise in facilitating group therapy, Sisterhood Heals puts our unique connection with other women at the centre, to help us build and sustain mutually supportive friendships. From how we can better hold space for our friends, to dealing with common arguments, setting firmer boundaries, and navigating the pain of a friend breakup, this book will teach you to create a more fulfilling and connected life for yourself and those around you.
